About this campaign
These Limited-Edition rainbow shirts were created for our staff and oldest campers last summer. The shirts were a culmination of some important programming and a celebration of the diversity of our camp family. Shortly after the summer, requests for this shirt came pouring in! We are so excited to make these shirts available for purchase to our camp family and beyond! Shirts will be delivered around March 19th!
The miracle of a Jewish summer camp in the Deep South began way before Jacobs Camp's first summer in 1970. For years prior, lay leaders and parents from across the region worked diligently to raise funds, awareness, and momentum to purchase the land that would one day become Henry S. Jacobs Camp. Our camp, located in the heart of the Deep South, was created by the Southern Jewish community with the idea that "from this camp will come young Jews proud of their faith and heritage, ready to go to college as committed Jewish youth. From this camp will come a new spirit of Jewish identification and a new hope for our futures." Through the years, the Jewish demographics in the Deep South have changed: the small Jewish enclaves have gotten smaller, while the major communities in New Orleans and Memphis continue to grow. Still Jacobs Camp remains steadfast in its goal of building a vibrant Jewish home for all young people of Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Tennessee, Alabama, and West Florida.

As a former rabbi in a remote southern congregation, I really appreciate the need for a Jewish camp experience for our kids.
Jacobs Camp has always been my home away from home every since 1999. It is a place for every Jewish child to feel a since of belonging. I love that the magic of Jacobs still exists and I am able to help pass it on for generations to come.
